Spider Web Halloween Game

There can be two variations of this game. For small kids, have one ball of wool in different colors for each child. They have to tie one end of the wool loosely around their waist. Then, the one who conducts the game will turn on a Halloween song and stop it arbitrarily. Whenever the music stops, the children have to throw their ball of wool to anyone in the circle. Then, they wrap the wool around any part of their body (but not on necks) such as legs, arms or waist and then throw the ball again to someone else, when the music stops again. Repeat this, until they run out of wool. There are no winners or losers in this variation of the game. It will keep the kids entertained for hours. Click the photo of the multicolored spider web they have spun at the end of the game. It will take another hour for the kids to untangle themselves.

Older children will love to have prizes and more activity. For them, take a black yarn and wrap it all around the room gently, such as around the couch or cabinet or the chairs as the base for the web. Cut the remaining yarn into very long pieces. Each piece should be several yards long. There should be one yarn, one plastic spider and one gift for each guest, which will the prize for the guest. Tie the spider on one end of each yarn and the prize on another end. Hide the 'prize' end of the yarn somewhere in the room and then spin the yarn around the yarn base, in such a way that in the end, the spider can be at the center of the web.

Repeat this with all the yarn ends. Spin the spider web high and low, run the yarn on floor at some places and take it above the sofa and cabinet at other places for a more untangled look. The guests have to take the 'spider' end and find the 'prize' by untangling their yarn from the web. This involves stepping over and under the spider web and getting tangled in it to find the prize. If you can shoot the video of this event, it can be very interesting to watch in future family and friend gatherings and can be quite funny.
